Selective Mutism includes social anxiety and shyness. People with it don't want to be anywhere near the centre of attention.
Most people have it when they're children but it is possible to still have it an an adult. People are more likely to be born with it then have it come to them.
Judging by myself i wouldn't call it a phobia because im personally not afraid of speaking I'm just forced not to speak.
Some people can like have selective mutism because it gets them out of speaking, for example speeches. Whether others just hate it.
